    Carnitas tacos
    Bethany R.

    Came on a Sunday night and ordered at the counter and had our food in about 10 Minutes. We enjoyed our food! We had the carnitas tacos, carnitas burrito, and half order of chips and salsa (which was huge). The carnitas are really yummy, slightly sweet, not a classic Mexican flavor but more an American & Mexican fusion, definitely a beach vibe. It's like if sublime opened a taco shop. Only thing was the space inside is very small, 4 tables and it was too cold to sit outside luckily someone was leaving by the time our food had ready. However The entrance door was a jar and didn't seem to close all the way so we had a heavy breeze right on us. It was very very cold. Besides that it was a good meal.

    The best places to eat are often the small hole-in-the-wall restaurants. Sancho's is a small, order at the counter quick Mexican restaurant with graffiti accents on the walls. There are only four tables inside but plenty of tables outside. When driving, note that it shares a building with the Silver Fox on the corner. I can see people missing it when they drive past. Our tri tip burrito and quesadilla were very good. My favorite was the carnitas nachos with their homemade chips. It was delicious.

    The decor on this place is super cool!

    The Surf and Turf Tacos (shrimp and asada) were really good! People were friendly, food was great, and the old school decor was super fun. I can't believe this was the first time I've been here. I've totally been missing out, and so are you if you don't stop by. Prices are more than fair as well!

    I've been to every Sanchos location and the food is consistently good! I love the Yardbird and OG. The sauces they use are delicious and the chips and queso are always a hit. The locations all have their own unique design by local artists. Service is quick and super helpful. I LOVE SANCHOS!

    The ambiance it pretty cool but there is defiantly enough inside seating. The service definitely gives a fast food vibe where the workers don't interact without after u get ur food. And the tacos are wayyyy overpriced for what they are. Maybe it's just because it's in Bakersfield so there aren't any other options nearby, but these tacos are not worth $5+ a piece.

    Chips, salsa, guacamole.

    In town and wanted a local Mexican restaurant to try. Sancho's Tacos was PERFECT. The chips were made fresh. Guacamole had a lemony taste to it. Salsa was perfection! Shrimp tacos were amazing. The restaurant was very clean with nice decor. Excellent music playing while we ate. Service was fast and prices were excellent. A definite must try and I will definitely return when in town.

    This is the spot from now on!

    The food is amazing. My first time eating here and I will definitely be back. I had the surf n turf burrito and a skrimp taco and they were delicious. Tri tip has so much flavor and the chipotle sauce on the side was bomb as fuck.

    The place is small inside!! There's music playing, and seating outside! The lines can get pretty long, so sometimes there's a wait. The burrito is VERY much stuffed! I enjoyed every bite because each bite had the protein. I tried all their sauces and there's one for each person, sweet, sweet and spicy, very spicy.

    Shitty nachos

    Ordered nachos. First off, paid extra for the guacamole and they forgot to add it. By the time you get your nachos home and find out their missing the guacamole, it's too late to go back and get the guacamole... But if the nachos were fire and loaded with cheese and flavor, might not be a big deal. But these $20 nachos were sad... Barely any cheese.. loaded with cilantro and chips. Skimpy with chicken (which I paid extra for) as well.

    THE BEST tacos in Bakersfield. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Every meat, every menu item,…read moreeven the agua frescas, all top tier. They load you up with meat that are all cleverly seasoned and prepared. Asada has smokey taste to it that I think some places lack. Pastor has the perfect blend of sweet and spicy . Buche is savory and doesn't feel like you're even eating offal. Everything is loaded up! The loaded potato has about a 1/2" lb of meat or more. The quesadillas are plump! Meat almost falls out. Sauces and other accompaniments are self serve and you can get as much as you want. Their chipotle salsa is spicy but damn is it good. They even have spicy onions that I never see. While you wait for your meal and watch the taquero at work, they have beans, tostadas, nopal, grilled onions and jalapenos all just sitting there FOR FREE. They also have some tiny potatoes soaking in the meat juices if you're lucky enough that they haven't run out (also for free!). The experience is just so customer forward and this is a gem that I hope expands even more. They have deals every week from buy one get one tortas, $1 tacos at a certain day at each location. It's often they have a line so consider yourself blessed if there isn't.

I ordered two asada tacos, carnitas, a loaded asada papa, and a pineapple with chamoy . The meat had good flavor but the meat was really greasy. The Fresca was watered down. The papa was good. Lots of free condiments to add on, the salsa's were fire. The service was ok. I would come here again but not for my taco Tuesday.

Uh" why would you bring me here to eat then!!!!! Yup, threw away my food right there. Yes, the food may look presentable but it's a hard NO for me.

We had a hard time finding it at first, but it's located in the parking lot of South Union Mini Mart. There's a lot of different taco trucks on Union, so make sure you don't pass this one up. Parking isn't really an issue, so don't worry about that. Staff is really nice. The first time we visited the young lady that took our order was very friendly and interactive. She had a nice warm personality so you feel welcomed when you visit. The owner, I didn't catch his name but he's literally cooking the food in the back. He's super friendly and also made us feel welcomed. Even though they are wayyyy out there on Union, they are the reason why people want to come back. Yes, food can be good at places, but if you have a good heart and personality then people can tell you're genuine. The first time we visited we were overwhelmed because we wanted to try EVERYTHING, I don't know what's my favorite item yet, but I'll let you guys know when I find out. Don't sleep on Taqueria El Jalisciense! I'm not a big fan of chicken tacos and I even loved those and I would get it again. Everything is so flavorful and you can tell he really thought about his menu. What I love is that he uses quality meats. Don't believe me? Definitely check out his instagram @jalisciense_torres don't blame me if you get hungry checking out his page haha. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone. If you're around the area and don't mind driving out to Union then this is the place. Give them a chance. P.S. they only take cash or Zelle so be prepared and they open in the evenings at 4pm-10pm. You better go before people start hearing about this place and the lines get too long. :-)

There are a lot of tables and seating between the two rooms inside and the completely shaded outdoor patio, it doesn't look as big from the outside as it truly is. The decor is really nice and earthy with tons of real vine plants, a mix of fake, cute mirrors and wall decor, and cool basket lighting. We went at the tail-end of lunch, and it was busy, but there were still a few tables open (I recommend making reservations). I ordered a raspberry drop (not overly sweet so I loved it) and my son ordered a triple berry hibiscus refresher, it was so good! For lunch, he ordered the garlic+parmesan cream pasta with chicken and not only was it scrumptious, but he had enough leftovers for another meal! I had the fish tacos- they were excellent, the pickled onions on top *chef's kiss* made them superb. I would only recommend asking for the tortillas to be doubled because they fell apart.
